Commission - Persona 4

Let me start off by saying I'm not happy with this picture. For some reason it never really clicked for me, and there were additional problems while working on it, but in the end the client was happy with it and that's what counts. I'm still posting it here for those of you who will also like it like he did, because my taste isn't the beginning and end of what people can enjoy. :)

I don't want to get into the issues I had with this pic, in case doing so might spoil it for people who do like it, but I will say I like some of the characters used. I've never played a Persona game, but I'm pretty familiar with the Shin Megami Tensei brand and I typically like the characters. P4 has several female characters I really dig, but I also like Teddie (the blonde whose face is obscured) quite a bit, and wouldn't mind doing a more concentrated picture some time featuring him. Kou (the bluish-grey-haired one with his feet sticking out) was also pretty cute in the anime episode focused on him, but I don't know if I'll ever draw him again. I don't really care for the other two guys in this pic, though.

The real good news, though, is that this is the last of the commissions I had lined up. I can now focus more on my own things, as commissions will remain closed for a while yet. I still have some Patreon ones that will be coming around when the month rolls over (one Patreon reward, plus the free one I'm raffling off), and I also I have a few special arrangements with friends that might crop up. Besides those, though, I'm looking forward to focusing on my comics, pumping out a few more Near Pokédex entries alongside a bunch more standalone pics. I'm really excited to getting back to deciding my own fate for a while until I'm desperate for money again.

SES, ST and TTN are my stories. ATTTP and SR are both commissions, as are LIB and J24. SW works differently, like you said, because the pages come out at Malezor's pace, not mine. ^_^ Good thing too, as long as it is. If it went at my pace we probably wouldn't have even met the Time Lord at this point.

Seriously?! Maybe Malezor is focused on Space Warped? I don't know if he have a blog like yours, but you have so many commissions and comics, that slow down you! But, you keep the blog always update, and this is awesome!!!

Malezor has his Patreon, where he does vore comics, so he keeps busy outside of Space Warped. The nice thing about SW, though, is the collaboration. When Malezor finishes the lineart, his part for the page is done, and he can move back to working on his Patreon and commissions while I color it. Meanwhile, I can work on my other projects while he draws, and then put them aside for a day or two to color the page when it's ready.

My other projects only slow me down if you're looking at following just the comics, or something. In terms of producing content for the blog, I think my pace is pretty decent. :)

[Ray] I see! This collab is great for you two! Surely, I always go here to see your updates! And like I said one time, your work is very exotic, drawing all types of sex, be yaoi, hentai and others and this is difficult to find! Keep this brillant work Near!!! ��

Commissions

Standard rate is $30 for Black & White, $50 for color. Comics get a $10 bulk discount per page (comic must be more than four pages to receive discount).

These prices assume 1-2 characters. Any characters beyond that will cost an extra $10. For example, a two-character color comic would be $35 per page, but the same comic with an extra two characters would cost $55 per page. Exceptions to this rule may be made for background characters not involved in the action. If anything is unclear, I am perfectly willing to discuss the matter with you.

Certain details may cause a price to go up for images, but these will be on a case-by-case basis and up for discussion with the client. I do not accept private commissions. All artwork I draw is for public consumption, and I reserve the right to share any commissioned content at my discretion.

I've recently set up a Patreon account. If you wish to support me directly, I recommend doing so here: Nearphotison's Patreon
